So I've had this niggling notion in my head for months now for a sandbox-type game set in the World Serpent Inn, an Inn that is, in fact, a demiplane connected to all the planes, and, in this particular case, every conceivable Prime Material, from Eberron to Toril to Golarion to homebrews (information on the Inn can be found here and here for those unfamiliar with it).

I'm not entirely set on what I want to do with it yet, but that's where the sandbox elements come in. Either the players are free to come and go as they please from the Inn, or at the beginning of the game, the Inn can find itself cut off from extraplanar travel, the portals that it uses to reach other worlds rendered nonfunctional. It depends on what prospective players are most interested in.

Likewise, I haven't settled yet on what I want the game to be like, mechanically. 3.5, 4th, Next playtest, Pathfinder, Pathfinder Mythic Playtest, and even freeform are all on the table, as is level. It really depends on what prospective players are most interested in, so, if you're interested, please, speak up, tell me what you'd like!

We'll be going with Pathfinder.

- Starting level is tentatively set at 14. - Standard Wealth- Point Buy (Epic Fantasy, 25 points) is preferred- Any class from Paizo Pathfinder material is allowed. 3rd Party Pathfinder and 3.5 material will be admitted on a case by case basis.- Races from the Advanced Races guide are allowed. Other races will be admitted on a case by case basis.

I'll update this first post as more details get hammered out, so stay tuned!

Most importantly before I get this game off the ground, I very much appreciate if someone might be willing to step in as the DM in case I disappear.Now with threads to link to!

As an update, if we end up going with Pathfinder, all Paizo classes are free game, as are all ARG races. Classes and races from other sources will be looked at on a case by case basis.

Preferences as far as level goes?

Level 14, but that's mostly because, upon looking through the Pathfinder SRD for character ideas, I find myself wanting to play one of these. I could probably come up with something else if other people don't want to start that high, though.

Hmm. I was considering having my Handmaiden Devil work as one of the wait-staff, as well, but looking over her racial skills, she gets Perform (Sing) on her list. Maybe she could be working as an entertainer in the World Serpent Inn, instead?
